Publisher in Ordinary to Her Majesty. It was moved, seconded, and unanimously agreed to, that JEREMIA DUNNE, Esq., do a c t as Secretary to the meeting. The requisition addressed to the Lord Mayor, together with his Lordship's answer, convening the meeting, which appeared in the public prints, having been read, the following resolutions were moved, seconded, and unanimously carried : Moved by CORNELIUS WLOUGHLIN, Esq. ; seconded by SYLVES TER YOUNG, Esq., and unanimously agreed to:— Resolved—That it appears to this meeting by, the evidence of Scotland that freedom of Trade in Banking, under such salutary regulations as the Legislature may deem proper, is the foundation of a nation's prosperity. Moved by JAMES DWYER, Esq : , Barrister-at-law; seconded by THOMAS DIXON, of Abbeyline, Esq. Resolved vnanimously—That the relaxation of the monopoly granted to the Bank of Ireland which took place under the auspices of the late Lord Liverpool and the present Lord Goderich, aided and assisted by the much lamented Mr. Huskissen, in 1821, fol lowed by the Act of 6th George IV. in 1825, has been productive of great good to all classes. Moved by Jo HN CLASSON, Esq.,; seconded by JEREMIAH DUNNE, Esq., and, Resolved unanimously—That by the Act passed at that period, Ist and 2d. Geo. IV., ch. 72, it was provided that no further pri l'ileges than as therein contained should be granted to Joint Stock Banking Companies until the Ist day of January, 1838, which Tegiod h as now passe d , an d i t appears to this meeting that the rade and Manufactures of the City of Dublin, as well as the pros perity of all classes would be promoted by an equality of privileges to all Banking institutions legally and properly constituted. Movedby IGNATIUS CALLAGHAN, Esq. ; seconded by PATRICK WALDRON, Esq., and Resolved unanimosly—That this meeting cannot believe that the report now in circulation " that the Bank of Ireland is about to ob tain a charter continuifig the monopoly in, and five miles outside, the City of Dublin," is well founded, being of opinion that the Le gislature will never assent to such an injustice as toput the Metro polis under restrictions from which the rest of the kingdom is free. Moved by ROBERT AI'CLELLANO, Esq. ; seconded by WILLIAM Barrister-at-Law, Resolved unanimously—That we recommend all who feel as we do, " that the interests of Dublin and Ireland require a Free dom of Trade in Banking" to petition the Legislature at this im portant crisis against extending or perpetuating a monopoly ex cluding fair competition, and calculated to retard the improvement of Ireland. Moved by PATRICK WALDRON, Esq. ; seconded by LAURENCE FINN, Esq., Resolved —That a petition founded on the foregoing resolutions be drawn up by the requisitionists, and signed by the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor on behalf of the meeting, and by such other citizens of Dublin as may join therein, and be forwarded to the Members for the city of Dublin, for presentation to the House of Commons, and to Lords Goderich and Lansdowne in the House of Peers. Moved by IGNATIUS CALLAGHAN, Esq. ; seconded by THOMAS DIXON, Esq., Resolved—Tht a ,deputation or the purpose of accomlishin the objects of • this meeting shall be sent to London t o forward the same. Moved by IGNATIUS CALLAGHAN, Esq.; seconded by ROBERT W A Lstr, Esq., Resolved—That the following Gentlemen do constitute such de putation :—Cornelius MacLoughlin, Esq.; William Hodges, Al_ 1 derman ; Thomas Dixon, Esq., Abbeyline ; Ignatius Callaghan, Esq.; James Dwyer, Esq., and the Secretary, Jeremiah Dunne, Esq. (Signed) SAMUEL WARREN, Lord Mayor, Chairman. JEREMIAH DUNNE, Secretary. It was then moved that the Right Hnn. the Lord Mayor do leave the Chair, and that Cornelius MacLoughlin, Esq., do take the same. A warm Tote of thanks Was then passed (amidst acclamation) to his Lordship for the alacrity with which he met the wishes of his fellow-citizen s by convening the meeting, and for the dignity with which he presided, added to which was the expressed wishes of the meeting that his Lordship - should accompany the Deputation. The Lord Mayor returned thanks in fervent terms for the honour done him, and was loudly applauded. C. AI ACLOUGHLIN, Chairman. And the n the Meeting adjourned. The fr. to following is the Petition alluded to : To the Honourable and Right Honourable the Commons of the United Kingdom, in Parliament assembled. The petition of the undersigned citizens of Dublin, Merchants, Traders, and others resident therein, and its environs, HUMBLY SHEWETH—That the charter of the Bank of Ireland was granted in the year 1782, at a time when there was no other oint stock bank in existence, or in contemplation, and the same was endowed with exclusive privileges, in expectation of a correspond ing public benefit. That, at that period, and subsequent thereto, a very insecure system of private banking was carried on by parties, under six in number, in various parts of the provinces of Ireland, the law not at the time alloning any Company more numerous, or possessing greater security (except the Bank of Ireland) to establish banks, or to issue notes as bankers. That, although the Bank of Ireland had the power, and the ex clusive privileges, it does not appear to your petitioners (and they ao submit to your Honourable House) that the Corporation ex tended their operations beyond the City of Dublin, but left the entire of the provincial parts of Ireland a prey to the insecure sys tem of private banking, which had been established, and carried on extensively, to the great injury of the country, and ultimately to the great loss of the industrious traders, farmers, and peasantry. That from 1782, up to 1821, at various times, failures of those private banking firms took place, entailing great loss on the people, and retarding the progress of commerce and apiculture. That by the 31st Geo. 111., cap 22, the capital of the Bank was increased from 600,000/. to 1 ,000,000/., and the charter extended until the expiration of twelve months' notice, after the Ist day of January, 1816. That by the 48th Geo. 111., cap. 103, the capital was increased from 1 , 5 00,000/. to 2,500,000/., and the charter extended until the expiration of twelve months' notice, after the Ist of January, 1 837, and the repayment of all sums due by the Government to the Bank. That by that Act the capital was increased from one million and a half to 2,500,000/. That notwithst an di ng those renewals of the charter it does not Appear to your petitioners that any advantage was given to the Public, or benefit afforded by the Bank other than the loan or ad vance to the Government of an inconsiderable sum of money (com pared st ith the national resources), but the country parts of Ireland were left without the protection and fostering assistance of joint stock banking institution s , w hi c h retarded its improvement, and afforded a remarkable contrast to Scotland, wherein no exclusive Privileges marred the general prosperity. That in the year 1121 the evils which hel been entailed upon the country by the absence of legitimate fa c iliti es f rom t h e Bank of Ireland were so great thnt the Government of that day interfered, and after much difficulty and negotiation the Bank Corporation were induced to relax their monopoly so far as to allow the forma tion of Joint Stock Banks in the provincial parts of Ireland (out side the limits of 50 Irish miles, equal to 65 of English measure) from the metropolis of Ireland. That upon this occasion the capital of the Bank was further extended to 3 , 00 0,000/., and it was provided that no further pri vileges than as therein granted, and the power to sue and be sued in the name of a pub* officer, previously to the Ist day of January, le3e. That owing to the, informal nature of the Act of 1321. and the imperfect manner in which it was drawn, it failed of any beneficial effects u n til 18 4 5, at which p e ri o d t h e imperfect legislation was in some, measure rectified by the Act of 6th G eo . I V ., c h ap. 42. That althoifeh by the Act of 1821 the Legislature had impliedlv declared its wish that solid bankin g institutions upon joint-stock prin c i p l es, as i n Scotland, should b e established is the provincial parts of Ireland to remedy the manifold evils which had flowed from the system of insecure private " banks—the Bank of Ireland took nn steps to establish branches in the provinces, which mul tiplied the evils so much as to require and occasion a fresh inter po etsition 189 of t he Legisl a t ure to carry i nto effect the objects of the A of . That although by the Act of 6th George IV., chap. 42, the establishment of joint-stock banks was rendered practicable be yond the limits of fifty miles from Dublin, the country within that limit, and the metropolis of Ireland was left exposed to the evils which resulted fro m the monopoly an d th e i ssue or eircula c ofk of the notes of any ot h er jeint.siock bank than those of the Act of Irela n d was prohibited, and remained penal, under the su rree d Ireland and 9 1 George 1 III., originally passed t o guar d an d mon oobl v That the charte r' of the Bank of Ireland a d the extensions thereof, granted by the several acts recited, ha e expired on the lat of .Tanuary, 1835 , and it now remains with the legislature to do Zkn act of justice and ssund poUce, by leaving open to Legitimate e e mpetition the trade of ba.nking in the city of Dublin, and within limit of fifty miles, and thereby removing those impediments Which the Bank monopoly interposes to the advancement of the t, commerce, and manufactures of the city of Dublin. t , lay it therefore plea=e your Honourable House not to renew banking Companies, but that Nitial privileges be allow d to all ' , el' such statutary rrovision s as to your Honourable House Trhl Y "em fit. And your petitioners, will ever pray. FEVER AND INFLUENZA. IL NORRIS'S DROPS, area Certain Remedy for FEVERS, COLDS, IN FLUENZA, and all Dis cer-ts,„,e3 thlt arise from obstructed perspiration.

The object of this Company is to assist in the formation of the commercial town of Fleetwood, and in the completion of the Har bour, Docks, and Bann -sky now forming at the entrance of More combo Bay, on the river Wye, in Lancashire. For this purpose the Proprietor has granted a large extent of ground to the Company for 1,000 years, rent free, and a right of pre-emption of the remaining building land on the most favourable terms. The characteristics and advantages of the site of Fleetwood are more fully detailed in a prosp ec tus, which may he had, as we ll as any further information, at the Office of the Company, No. 11, King William-street, City, where all applications for Shares, ad dressed to the Directors, must be forwarded. N. B. It was originally contemplated to carry the above object into effect on the principle of a Tontine ; but it having been repre sented, from the most respectable quarters, that the complex machinery inseparable from a Tontine would go far to preclude th e easy transfer of Shares, and thus materially affect their marketabl e value, and it having likewise become evident, in the course of th e preliminary steps taken for procuring an Act of Parliament, that various difficulties and impediments would arse in so d0in,,, , , o n account of the peculiar nature of the proposed Tontine ; the Direc tors (although more than sufficient applications for Shares have been received for that purpose), in the conviction that the greater part of the Subscribers look less to the particular mode in which the capital is raised than to the beneficial results from the applica tion of it, have resolved to adopt in its stead the more simple and recognized plan of a Joint Stock Company, to be incorporated by Charter or Act of Parliament.
